Without going into a lot of details. rpm -q kernel shows kernels below installed. Running rpm -qV kernel-2.6.19-1.2905.fc7 shows a list of missing files for the removed kernel.

You might try:  rpm -i --replacepkgs kernel-2.6.19-1.2905....

You might add the --oldpackage option too.

The newer rpm for 2909 was installed and only the database entry for the 2905 was installed on the system.

I got the kernel to install correctly and add to the database by running yum again. It installed the packages again and removed the 2905 entry.

For the updated packages, it was a big mess. I had about 41 multiple versioned entries in the rpm db again. There was the removed datawise but not from the rpmdb and the actually installed packages.

I filed a report for the incident.
